you need to post the error.

It looks like you want to use the google jsapi in the server in node. I think you'll have a hard time because that library assumes a browser DOM environment. You can't just use it as is.

But that's not your only problem here. "chunk.google.load" doesn't make any sense. It sounds like you may need to spend a little time with a few tutorials on what's happening with the node http module. I would point you at a few but it's a pain because I'm on my phone.

Post some more code or ask some more questions and we'll try I help out.

even better, get rid off the callback, it is not required:

http://www.google.com/uds/Gfeeds?callback=google.feeds.Feed.RawCompletion&context=0&num=50&hl=en&output=json&q=http%3A%2F%2Fnerdist.libsyn.com%2Frss&key=notsupplied&v=1.0&nocache=1430821526494

Hi everybody,

[Mattijs Spierings]

Maybe a bit late, but I also needed the Google Feed option in NodeJS (Meteor) and  I just looked at the outgoing communication by the Feed service

http://www.google.com/uds/Gfeeds?callback=google.feeds.Feed.RawCompletion&context=0&num=50&hl=en&output=json&q=http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=510289/rss&v=1.0&nocache=1430821526494

The q=http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=510289/rss is what you want to change yourself and probably the num=50. That is your return limit.

Also change the nocache variable for each request if you dont want caching.

Good luck!
